just bought a ASTRO 96

Hello Pals

I just bought an Astro 96, still do not know if this is a good acquisition because it already has 190,000 miles besides I have never got a Chevrolet car, but it looks on pretty good conditions, you are the experts here…

What do you recommend that I should check or change?
I know I have to make a tune-up but…
i.e. What about the O2 sensors and other stuff

Any comments on it would be appreciated

I would check all you ball joints, tie rods, and probably replace if you don't know when they were done last. I bought a 1996 2 years ago, it past safety and all, then 6 months after buying it, the right front top ball joint broke after hitting a bump in the road, I was doing 50 miles an hour at the time. I was told then that all Astros and Safari's have a problem with steering components.

do a compression check to see what kind of condition your engine is in.

also of course do your fluids and filters.. check for leaks

i totally agree with tableman's post too !!

rip off your wheels and check the bearings.

if you notice your car is getting bad gas mileage then get new O2's..

Ok

Thank you for your comments I will work on it

Changing a fuel filter is cheap insurance.
